The last assessment is make a podcast. Firstly, I should understand what is the podcast and the process of it. For this question, I searched through the google, and is to create your own sound program and upload It to the internet to share with the majority of users. Can be understood as playing audio. In class the teacher told us about the basic step of podcasting. It is introduction, main idea and conclusion, and put music in between with them. After that, I focused my attention on the assessment instruction. Read the assignment topic carefully. Finally, I decide to make a podcast about
How has the rise of social media impacted contemporary politics? And find the academic resource for this podcast.
By searching for academic articles, I understand the question in more detail. According to Kwak, N., Lane, D.S., Weeks, B.E., Kim, D.H., Lee, S.S. and Bachleda, S., 2018. Perceptions of Social Media for Politics: Testing the Slacktivism Hypothesis. Human Communication Research,Social media are the interactive computer-mediated technologies that would make possible the sharing and creating information and ideas via virtual networks and communities, which mean is social media can effect the politics. For example, The social media has been successful to predict the result of votes(ThoughtCo. (2020). Social Media in Politics – Twitter and Facebook as Campaigns Tools.) and according to Sysomos. (2020). How Social Media Affects Politics, the politicians are also able to contact with the common people through social media. For example, Trump won the last us presidential election because of his frequent use of social media, like twitter and facebook. Next, I got many rumors have been spread through social media, disrupting the lives of many ordinary people. This idea from Lakkysetty, N., Deep, P. and Balamurugan, J., 2018. Social media and its impacts on politics.
The next step in getting the academic article together is write the script. I decide to use the traditional process which is opening, describe the problem and some example as well as con conclusion.
In the opening is simply introduce myself and the question. And use a suitable piece of music, it is hard for me to find the right assignment requirements and good music. So, I chose one of my favorite anime background music. It is from Naruto, that is really good anime. I often have some trouble recording, like when I record, my roommate always produce some noise:) and the recorded sound is not clear enough. So I try it many time. And the app which is named audacity is not work on my computer. I can download it but I can not open it. Thus I use imovie to make it as well as export the only sound. When I finish recording the content, I just going to perfect the audio, such as adjust the volume and background music and the opening. This is my first time to make podcast, so I am not clear about what should I say in end of it as well as I decide to use cliched endings and make a simply conclusion. For high quality of audio, I decide to upload the wav.
I will try harder next time.
